History of cricket in India from 2000-01
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article describes the history of cricket in India from the 2000-01 season to the present.
[edit] Events
The BCCI tinkered with the Duleep Trophy in the 2002-03 season. The original zonal teams were replaced by five new teams called Elite A, Elite B, Elite C, Plate A and Plate B. These teams were constructed from the new Elite Group and Plate Group divisions which had been introduced into the Ranji Trophy that season. However, this format lasted for only one season as it was felt that the new teams lacked a sense of identity. From the 2003-04 season, the five original zonal teams competed along with a sixth guest team which was a touring foreign team. The first guest team was England A in 2003-04.
Mumbai (formerly Bombay) has continued its dominance of the domestic scene into the 21st century by winning the Ranji Trophy three times in the first seven seasons.
Noted Indian cricketers in the 21st century include Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Rahul Dravid, Sourav Ganguly, Zaheer Khan, Anil Kumble, Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar.
India won the inaugural ICC World T20 in 2007.
India was the first Sub-continental team to win a Test match at the WACA in January 2008 against Australia.
